Abstract
An apparatus to perform the electrostatic transfer of a developed image from a master having a permanent latent image therein to a receiving surface in which the master is moved between a first position remote from said receiving surface to a second position in overlying relation with said receiving surface for image transfer. A wicking station is moveable between a first position and a second position to deposit an insulating solvent on said receiving surface and return to its first position at a slower speed than the speed of the master returning to its first position. Gap spacer strips are provided which are played out over the receiving surface as the wicking station moves to its second position. The gap spacer strips in combination with a drive motor serve to return the wicking station to its first position.
